WARNING: The system does notactivate the turn signal.
Adaptive cruise control precautions applyto predictive speed assist unless statedotherwise or contradicted by a predictivespeed assist precaution. See AdaptiveCruise Control Precautions (page 342).
The system only applies limited braking.You can override the system with theaccelerator pedal or cancel the system byapplying the brakes.
The system may adapt to various factorssuch as time of day, lane width. This couldinfluence speed adjustments andaccelerations.
The system may adapt to various drivemodes. See Drive Mode Control (page362).This could influence speedadjustments and accelerations.
Note:The system does not activate theturn signal automatically.
PREDICTIVE SPEED ASSISTLIMITATIONS

WARNING: The system mayoperate with reduced function duringcold and inclement weather conditions.Snow, ice, rain, spray and fog canadversely affect the system. Keep thefront camera and radar free of snow andice. Failure to follow this instruction mayresult in the loss of control of yourvehicle, serious personal injury or death.
WARNING: Take additional care ifyour vehicle is heavily loaded or you aretowing a trailer. These conditions couldresult in reduced performance of thissystem. Failure to follow this instructioncould result in the loss of control of yourvehicle, personal injury or death.
WARNING: The system cannothelp prevent all crashes. Do not rely onthis system to replace driver judgmentand the need to maintain a safe distanceand speed.
WARNING: System performancecould be reduced in situations where thevehicle camera has limited detectioncapability. These situations include butare not limited to direct or low sunlight,vehicles at night without tail lights,unconventional vehicle types,pedestrians or cyclists with complexbackgrounds, running pedestrians or fastmoving cyclists, partly obscuredpedestrians or cyclists, pedestrians orcyclists that the system cannotdistinguish from a group. Failure to takecare may result in the loss of control ofyour vehicle, personal injury or death.
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
LIMITATIONS
Pre-collision assist depends on thedetection ability of its camera and sensors.Any obstructions or damage to these areascan limit detection or prevent the systemfrom functioning. See Locating thePre-Collision Assist Sensors (page 393).
The system is active at 3 mph (5 km/h)and above.
Note:The pre-collision assist systemautomatically disables when you selectfour-wheel drive low, manually disableAdvanceTrac™, or select rock crawl mode,if your vehicle comes with it.
Note:Brake support and automaticemergency braking are active up to themaximum speed of the vehicle.
Pedestrian Detection Limitations
Pedestrian detection is active at speedsup to 50 mph (80 km/h).
Pedestrian detection operates optimallywhen detected hazards are clearlyidentifiable. System performance mayreduce in situations where pedestrians arerunning, partly obscured, have a complexbackground, or when the system cannotdistinguish pedestrians from a group.
Cyclist Detection Limitations
Cyclist detection is active at speeds up to50 mph (80 km/h).
Cyclist detection functions optimally whendetected hazards are clearly identifiable.The system’s detection level may be lessin situations where cyclists are moving fast,partly hidden, have a complex background,or the system cannot distinguish the cyclistfrom a group.

When operating your vehicle with asnowplow:
•Do not exceed 45 mph (72 km/h).
•Your engine could run at a highertemperature than normal.
•If you are driving more than 15 mi(24 km) at temperatures abovefreezing, angle the plow bladeeither full left or full right to providemaximum airflow to the radiator.
•If you are driving less than 15 mi(24 km) at speeds up to 45 mph(72 km/h) in cold weather, you donot need to worry about bladeposition to provide maximumairflow.
•Shift to 4L when plowing in small areasat speeds below 5 mph (8 km/h).
•Shift to 4H when plowing larger areasor light snow at higher speeds above5 mph (8 km/h). Do not exceed15 mph (24 km/h).
•Do not shift the transmission from aforward gear to reverse (R) until theengine is at idle and the wheels havestopped.
Note:Careless or high-speed driving whensnowplowing, which results in significantvehicle decelerations, can deploy the airbag.Such driving also increases the risk ofaccidents.
Note:Drive your vehicle at least 500 mi(800 km) before using your vehicle forsnowplowing.
SNOWPLOW MODE
WHAT IS SNOWPLOW MODE
Snowplow mode reduces vehicle electricalload to allow the electrical system to havesufficient power to support residentialsnowplow use.
SWITCHING SNOWPLOW MODEON AND OFF

The following features turn off and aredisabled in snowplow mode and cannotbe turned back on until snowplow modeis switched off:
•120 V inverter.
•Fog lamps.
•Heated and cooled front seats.
The body module also activates thesnowplow relay that provides power toaftermarket snowplow controls.
Note:The electrical system supports theaddition of a residential snowplow of up to60 A continuous, and snowplow lights ofup to 20 A continuous using snowplowmode. The system does not supportsnowplow usage with additional electricalaftermarket accessories.
